Chemistry -- Mr. Martin Barron
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This introductory course presents many of
the major concepts in the
field of chemistry, the study of matter. It concentrates on the
relationship between the structure of matter and its behavior;
attempting to pose the question “why does something behave a
certain
way” and answer the question based on the structure and chemical
changes that occur. The other primary emphasis of the course is on the
process of learning problem solving techniques and strategies, both
mathematical and investigative. While providing an overview of
specialized behaviors of the elements (making extensive use of the
periodic table to indicate structure and draw conclusions about
generalized property patterns), the course will also introduce solution
chemistry and nuclear chemistry. Whenever possible, laboratory
experiences will serve to illustrate the principals being studies
as
well as to introduce safe and proper scientific investigative
procedures.
